The truth is, if you want a decent job that will lead to a decent life today you have to work harder, regularly reinvent yourself, obtain at least some form of postsecondary education, make sure that you’re engaged in lifelong learning and play by the rules. That’s not a bumper sticker, but we terribly mislead people by saying otherwise.

Actually, most of those comments seem to contain the standard liberal refrain of “its the Republicans’ fault”, ignoring the fact that the current “Progressive” White House occupant has been as much a loyal servant of the 1% as his predecessor. I’m amazed by how many people still buy into the partisan divide nonsense.

thanks alvinroast. i seriously wish i could make up a stack of such bumperstickers -T-shirts too. & a top-slling CD by that name. i envision an army of graffiti artists tagging the whole country with that phrase. by gum, a veritable CSWPE movement. of course, then the wingnuts would claim it for their own… it’s not like anything needs to make actual sense any more. it’s a post-sense world, eh?
